Bomberman 64 coming to Wii U Virtual Console

The Wii U isn't dead, and it's about to go boom

All eyes may have turned to the Switch but the Wii U isn’t dead, even new games are coming up. Well, not really “new” new game. This one is Bomberman 64, and it’s coming on the Virtual Console. That’s right, this week’s Nintendo eShop update on the Wii U will include the first 3D game in the Bomberman series, developed by Hudson Soft and released in 1997.

For those of you who’ll take a step back in time with Bomberman 64, you’ll enjoy this US version running at 60Hz. And as a warm up, here’s the original advertising of the game. Why don’t they make WTF videos like this anymore we wonder…
